  • Reducing idle leakage power in an IC
    Patent number: 8392728
    Abstract: A method to reduce idle leakage power in I/O pins of an integrated circuit using external circuitry. Initially, I/O pins on a package are subdivided into those that will also remain powered up and those that will power down during idle state. When a system enters a low power mode, a signal is sent to the external circuitry. The signal notifies the I/O pins that always remain powered up to notify the external circuitry to power down the other set of I/O pins.

  • AIR SEPARATION PLANT CONTROL
    Publication number: 20130053998
    Abstract: A method of controlling an air separation plant and a control system to optimize production of an argon product produced by the plant. A computer program is continually executed that has models of each column of the plant, a condenser reboiler and an argon reflux condenser. The models contain stage models of each stage of separation within each of the columns that when assembled are able to calculate current values of controlled variables in response to input variables applied to the models. The controlled variables serve as an input to a controller that controls manipulated variables comprising flow rates of an air feed stream to the air separation plant, a product oxygen stream removed from the lower pressure column and the crude argon feed stream such that the controlled variables are within a targeted range selected to optimize the production of the argon product.

  • Random access audio decoder
    Patent number: 8386523
    Abstract: Random access decoding start points (audio frame headers) for AMR-type files are found by sequential elimination of types of file points from consideration for a block of file points following a random access selected point. Chaining of file points according to frame header format interpretation gives paths of points through the block, and selection of maximal path(s) includes sums of weights of the points of a path. The next-to-initial points of such a maximal path provides a decoding start point.

  • Deployment actuation system
    Patent number: 8381733
    Abstract: Contraceptive methods, systems, and devices generally improve the ease, speed, and reliability with which a contraceptive device can be deployed transcervically into an ostium of a fallopian tube. The contraceptive device may remain in a small profile configuration while a sheath is withdrawn proximally, and is thereafter expanded to a large profile configuration engaging the surrounding tissues, by manipulating one or more actuators of a proximal handle with a single hand. This leaves the other hand free to manipulate a hysteroscope, minimizing the number of health care professional required to deploy the contraceptive device.
